This will be nice if we can do it. I do rather wonder how we're going to achieve (3) though. In order for miniparrot to run make.pl it needs to have fairly good I/O, file test, and system() capabilities, all of which seem wildly system dependent. Do we use a glorified hints file to build miniperl or wot ?
